Prostate cancer is unfortunately common in men over 65. Prostate surgery, such as prostatectomy, can impact bladder control (urgency, frequency, etc.), pelvic floor function, and sexual health. Physiotherapy plays a key role both before and after surgery.

Pre-operative physiotherapy helps men understand and correctly activate their pelvic floor muscles, building strength and confidence ahead of surgery.

Post-operatively, physiotherapy supports recovery by guiding safe pelvic floor rehabilitation, addressing urinary incontinence, and helping restore sexual function where possible. With tailored exercise programs and education, men’s health physiotherapists provide practical strategies that enhance recovery and support overall wellbeing after prostate surgery.
